It’s impossible to encapsulate the ripping all in one edit, so we made another! The Combi is a massive pit, take nothing for granted. 

The Combi Pool Party never disappoints, and the action this year was heavier than ever. In the end, Pedro Barros went ballistic and blew it out for first place. Thanks again for the good times, Vans. 

While the rain pours here in SF, the sun blazes in Australia. Bondi always goes off, but this year things got a little bit hotter.

Bob’s Dreamland is a spot unlike any other but unless you can handle walls this big it would be a nightmare. These guys rip and are up for the challenge.

Mammoth Mountain is a striking locale, complete with expansive meadows, old forests, and jagged rock spires. Fitting that it has a skatepark of equal magnitude. Hatchell, PLG, Beckett, Tershy, Schaar, and Wood are just descending from a heavy trip in the thin mountain air. –Jordan Brown

Broken boards equals broken dreams. Chris Russell had it in the bag but one too many hang-ups enabled Tom Schaar to spin his way to the top. Meanwhile, Pedro Barros stole the show with a death defying NBD. 10 years of the Pool Party and this was the best one yet! Cheers, Vans!

Rhino comes through with some photos from the Pool Party. Check them out here.

Here's one of Tom Schaar's winning runs from the 2015 Vans Pool Party. Full recap edit is on it's way...

Vert skating is still some of the heaviest shit you can do on four wheels. Upstarts Jimmy Wilkins, Tom Schaar and Sam Beckett trade walls with legends Rune Glifberg, PLG and Jake Brown. And then there's the dudes who've never worn pads in their lives - Chris Russell gets stuffed then shuts it down!
